The headliner of a heavy metal music festival in Florida — and seven other bands — dropped out of the show to protest that acquitted Kenosha killer Kyle Rittenhouse would be on the bill as a “special guest,” according to reports. Rockers Evergreen Terrace pulled out of Shell Shock II in Orlando, saying it refuses “to align with an event promoting murderers” — prompting the festival’s founder to slam them as woke phonies.

Seven other bands including Southpaw, Let Me Bleed and American Hollow followed suit and quit the festival, saying they didn’t want to get political, according to the festival’s founder Tyler Hoover.

“The most punk move you can **** do is stay on a bill that everyone hates. That’s being covered by the media. What happened to punk? What happened to rock? What happened to finger in the air?” Hoover said, according to Outkick.

The festival, which raises money to help veterans with PTSD, will now feature a Slipknot cover band as its headliner and is still scheduled for Oct. 19, according to the music site Loudwire. It wasn’t immediately clear what Rittenhouse’s role as a “special guest” at the festival would be.

“Poor Kyle has yet to understand that he will never be accepted by these people.”
He was accepted by some of ‘those people’.
” ... the festival’s founder to slam them as woke phonies.”
“I would expect hundreds of paid assets of the feds to be there just to turn it into a mass shooting if they get the opportunity, all looking like heavy metal right wing white supremacists. “
Scheduled for 10/17. Ping me on 10/18 for an update.
Will do. I’m going to Graceland tonight. Todd Rundgren. Normally I avoid all public gatherings, but it’s a wife thing on our 42nd anniversary. Doing Uber. My wife doesn’t ask for much, so.....
Kyle Rittenhouse and the Kenosha Kickers now appearing.
He should have kept his mouth shut.
I couldn’t see a list with any names besides those four.
Many of these metal head bands are just a group of knob gobbler poofter liberals posing as men and are offended when a real man shows up...
> heavy metal
Light plastic.
“He should have kept his mouth shut.”
Nice to have him NOT keep his mouth shut.
Et tu, New York Post?
Pretty much any group out there today is beholden to corporate and powerful interests. They are weak and woke as they rage.
“ Wow - what a bunch of poseurs...”
***********************************
“poseurs” - Exactly the word that comes to my mind.
Kyle Rittenhouse, now 21, should be allowed to live his life, including attending college!
Leftist persecution is intolerable!
“Kyle Rittenhouse saved Kenosha. The rioting and burning stopped and the communists went home.”
Perhaps that’s the REAL PROBLEM that the Left has with him.
There’s nothing more metal than Kyle Rittenhouse
I’ll never forget a comment made by a reporter - he noted that only ONE JUROR wore a mask at that trial (in 2021), and that boded well for Kyle. Probably made jury selection a lot easier for his attorneys too.
Scum.
No bias there, eh?
The Demo-ni-orcs focus on Kyle as the source of all evil when it comes to self defense but what they should be aware of is that there are many Kyle Rittenhouses in the USA who were trained to handle weapons just like him. I’m sure the various “agencies” are aware of it. The only working thing going for these “agencies” is that decades of progressive propaganda, support of corrupting policies that destroy families and traditional morality have split the nation nearly in two. The progressives have a willing army of Demo-ni-orc spawn to throw against conservatives and Practicing believer Christians in particular!
I never heard of even on of those bands of azhos that quit. They only hurt their own dumb asses because no showing up an playing isn’t how you ever get famous. Meatheads!
